Chapter 138: Goodbye is like a world away
Since meeting Yan Donglin, Chen Xu has been in a very bad mood. But Chen Xu is a person who does things from beginning to end, she did not give up helping because of this, but always insisted on helping Zhang's mother. When winter was coming, Chen Xu received winter clothes from his warm-hearted brother Liu Jingsheng: two down jackets, one long and one short (with two cashmere sweaters, a pair of cotton boots and a pair of cotton shoes. To Chen Xu's surprise, Liu Jingsheng also warmly prepared two pairs of cotton gloves. Chen Xu also complained that Liu Jingsheng was too wasteful at that time, saying that he didn't go out often, and it was too wasteful to buy so much. Liu Jingsheng smiled and said, "Little nagging woman, don't say it again." I wanted to take a few more pieces, but I was afraid that you would nag, so I only chose two of each. In the winter, even if you can use it once, it is not in vain, otherwise it will be too cold to go out.
Soon, this big down jacket came in handy, but it also caused her trouble. December 4 is the Constitution Publicity Day, because it is the first Constitution Publicity Day, and all relevant units have sent publicity teams. On this day, the procuratorate sent a total of five people, some to distribute leaflets on the road, and some to hang propaganda slogans. For this event, promotional slogans and billboards were ordered in advance. According to the instructions of the leaders, various departments sent young people to go.
It was a very cold day, Chen Xu hurriedly put on cotton boots and down jackets, and put on cotton gloves, which can be said to be fully armed. When she gathered at the door of the procuratorate, she found that Yan Donglin was also among them, and although Chen Xu felt a little awkward, she didn't show anything unusual. Several people set up billboards and hung propaganda boards at the designated places, and then Chen Xu and Yan Donglin were responsible for distributing publicity materials. Chen Xu avoided looking at Yan Donglin and saved his embarrassment. After a while, the materials on hand of the two people were gone, and everyone stood by the billboard, and some of the citizens who came and went would stop in front of the billboard to take a look, and would also consult about the relevant issues of interest. When no one is around, Liu Yihui will keep jumping with her feet to resist the cold. She looked at Chen Xu's down jacket that reached to her ankles and said, "You are still smart, your down jacket is very warm at first glance, what brand is this?" Chen Xu shook his head and said, "I don't know, I didn't buy it myself, my brother bought it for me." Yan Donglin snorted coldly suddenly, causing everyone to look at him. This is Wang Ran suddenly said: "Eh, by the way, you two are a brand of down jackets, right?" Look at this logo is the same! Chen Xu didn't go to see Yan Donglin. Wang Ran asked Yan Donglin again, "How much is your down jacket?" Yan Donglin didn't seem to be willing to answer, but it was not easy to refuse, so he only said: "It's not much money, more than six thousand!" When Wang Ran heard this, he was dumbfounded, this is not expensive, he bought a piece for more than 2,000 and was nagged by his mother for several days.
Several other girls set their eyes on Chen Xu, usually Chen Xu is quite low-key, always saying that his family is not rich, but he didn't expect to be able to wear such expensive clothes. Liu Yihui looked at Chen Xu, "You are really willing to spend money on yourself." Chen Xu said: "I didn't buy it myself, my brother bought it for me." At this time, Yan Donglin suddenly said in a weird way: "How many good brothers do you have?" ”
Gao Jiaqi, Liu Yihui, and Wang Ran all looked at Chen Xu directly, waiting for her to answer. Chen Xu was a little annoyed in his heart, but he glared at Yan Donglin silently, "What does this have to do with you?" Yan Donglin sneered: "It has nothing to do with me, but it's just curious, but it seems that you don't mean to satisfy my curiosity, so I won't ask, because it's better not to listen than to hear a lie." ”
Chen Xu looked at the other people with expressions of watching the play, and felt very unhappy, and angrily scolded Yan Donglin: "Did I step on your tail?" Why do you keep jumping up and can't get along with me? Yan Donglin looked down at Chen Xu disdainfully, "It's you who jumped up now, right?" ”
Gao Jiaqi couldn't help laughing, Chen Xu didn't think there was anything ridiculous about it. She is very dissatisfied with Gao Jiaqi at the moment, how can she say that the two of them are also in the same office, as for looking at it like this? So she didn't pay attention to a few people, but quietly watched the passers-by.
Standing outside for several hours in the morning, several girls shouted cold, and only Chen Xu didn't say a word. I went back to the cafeteria at noon to eat, and in the afternoon I still had to publicize it on the street, because it was the first Constitution Day, so I paid great attention to it. After Chen Xu finished eating, he came out by himself, and Yan Donglin followed her. The two of them were in the elevator and didn't say a word, and when they came to the propaganda point, only the two of them arrived first. Yan Donglin finally couldn't help but speak: "Chen Xu, in fact, you are a big money, I think it is wiser than helping the poor boy's mother to clean up, so there is nothing wrong with making your life better, so I think you are more realistic." Chen Xu didn't look at Yan Donglin, but looked down at his boots, "Yan Donglin, thank you." Yan Donglin couldn't be rectified at once, Chen Xu continued, "I know you hate iron and steel, but everyone has his reasons for doing things, and he also has his principles, let me do my own things, and leave everything to time." You don't have to feel worthless for me here, and you don't have to be so cynical all the time, I know you're not as bad as everyone says, you just have better family conditions and live a more arbitrary life. ”
Yan Donglin didn't expect that after he sneered a few times, Chen Xu would still be able to say such a thing. Yan Donglin couldn't help but look ashamed, he stretched out his hand and scratched his nose, "What's that, in fact, I don't mean anything else, I am, Chen Xu said softly, people always have to be responsible for their own actions, let me solve it slowly!"
After New Year's Day, there was a training session in the provincial department. Zhang Jian led the team, and came over to tell Li Chang to let Chen Xu carry it. Li Chang was very unhappy, although the newly assigned civil servants were still more serious, they were far inferior to Chen Xu. The reason given by Zhang Jian is that on the one hand, he wants to find a job seriously, and on the other hand, he has to choose an unmarried person, and there is no family drag, so he can just leave. Chen Xu had no objection to the work arrangement, she simply packed her luggage, got her things ready, and was ready to leave at any time. The only problem is that the scarf that was originally going to be given to Han Yidao has been knitted, but now the two have broken up, so Chen Xu put the scarf in and took it out again, and then put it in and took it out, and after tossing it several times, he finally brought the scarf to the provincial capital.
Liu Jingsheng learned the news that Chen Xu was coming in advance, and happily went to the station to pick up Chen Xu early. Chen Xu told Liu Jingsheng that he ate and stayed in the hotel during the training. Liu Jingsheng said: "It's hard to come here, why don't you stay at home?" Chen Xu said: "I have to report before dinner today, and I can't come out of the closed management during the training." Liu Jingsheng said: "Fortunately, it is lunch, and my parents are going to pick you up." Chen Xu listened very kindly, and his heart was very warm.
Liu Weiguo and Han Hui had already arrived at the hotel, and they had been waiting for a long time when Chen Xu came. After saying hello, Chen Xu took off his coat, and as soon as he sat down, Han Hui took out a jewelry box from his bag and pushed it in front of Chen Xu, "Chen Xu, you promised to be my daughter last time, I don't know if you still have the original idea now." This watch was customized by me abroad, and it is the same as your brother's, and I don't tell you that it was going to be given to my future daughter-in-law, but your brother said that it was more appropriate to give it to you, and I would like to see this watch on my sister's hand. If you don't dislike it, just take it! Liu Weiguo also added next to him: "We also bought you other gifts, this watch is what your brother insisted on giving you." He said that the relationship between brother and sister can last longer than the relationship between husband and wife, so he prefers that the owner of this watch is you. As soon as Chen Xu heard that it was customized, the price was expensive, and she was a little embarrassed.
Chen Xu stood up, walked to Han Hui's side in a few steps, and suddenly knelt down, "Thank you for being willing to accept me as a daughter, I finally have a mother." Han Hui was busy and wanted to pull Chen Xu up. Unexpectedly, Chen Xu stubbornly knelt on the ground and said, "Can I call you mother?" I don't want to be called a godmother. Han Hui nodded repeatedly, "Okay." It's more intimate to call it that way. Chen Xu really kowtowed to Liu Weiguo and Han Hui three times, which can be regarded as officially recognizing his parents. Han Hui hurriedly pulled Chen Xu up, took out the watch from the jewelry box, and helped Chen Xu put it on.
Han Hui said with satisfaction: "I am finally a person who has a daughter, I didn't expect that there would be this blessing, Liu Weiguo nodded in agreement." Chen Xu shouted "brother" affectionately again. At this time, the service staff pushed open the door to serve the food, and a person passed by, and when he heard Chen Xu's voice, he froze suddenly, standing outside, staring intently at the people in the box, as if the people would disappear in the blink of an eye. Chen Xu inadvertently raised his head, and suddenly found that Han Yidao was standing outside looking at her fixedly, Chen Xu also looked back at him, he hadn't seen him for a few months, and now they met like a world away.
